Unsurprisingly, Massimo Cellino used his contacts in Italy to bring a number of players to Leeds United this summer, with a total of eight players arriving from Italian clubs this summer, and Brazilian Adryan even played for Cellino's former club Cagliari last season.

With quite the foreign contingent building at Elland Road, it would be little surprise to see Cellino bring in more players from Serie A in January.

"These were three difficult years for me mentally and physically. In January, I will be twenty-six; I want to play regularly," admitted Eriksson.

Another Leeds move for Eriksson would likely depend on moving Luke Murphy and David Norris out of the club, whilst Premier League clubs are seemingly queuing up to sign teenager Alex Mowatt.

In Leeds' diamond system, you can never have too many central midfield players, and Eriksson - who is at his best when allowed to go from box-to-box - would add to Leeds' strength in midfield alongside Tommaso Bianchi, Rodolph Austin and the aforementioned Mowatt.
